You don't need

A Technical Writer.

At least, not full-time.

Not even for a short term contract. Your budget doesn’t allow for it and you don’t have the office space.

What you do need, though, is someone to write an occasional document, create a user guide for a bespoke application, build an online help system, or convert some technical papers into reader-friendly format. Maybe you just need someone to do some editing or proofreading once in a while.

You want to be able to call on someone for a week, a day, or just a few hours - no strings attached, no desk space or equipment required. Someone who can tie up all your loose documentation ends promptly, professionally, and accurately.

• Cut costs by paying only for the work that you need done, and not for a long term contractor/employee.
• Free up your valuable technical staff to do what they do best – which is usually NOT documentation.
• Have your documentation professionally edited, proofread, and formatted. It makes a much better impression.
• Send me the work – it comes back done. On time, on target.

• Here’s what I do:

• Write technical documents - user guides, installation guides, etc.
• Turn technical specifications into reader-friendly documents
• Create online help systems
• Edit and proofread all types of documents including academic papers, website copy, and corporate communications

• Here’s my experience:

• 7 years programming, 10 years technical writing and editing
• Experienced user of Framemaker, Word, JavaHelp, Webworks, HTML Help, Firstpage, Distiller, Visio, etc.
• Clients include Sony, Oracle, Hewlett Packard, Tridion, Kudelski, National Power, small startups, and individuals
